Police Officer Responds to Call, Ends up Adopting Tiny Pup

Check out the amazing video below!

Puppies are pretty amazing at instantly stealing our hearts, which is exactly what happened to Police Officer Marcus Montgomery when he answered an unrelated call at a local dog shelter. Officer Montgomery arrived at Panhandle Animal Welfare Society to deal with a situation involving an employee, when he laid eyes on the special little pup!

This puppy had been abandoned in a box behind the shelter over night, and Officer Montgomery was smitten the moment he laid eyes on him! He warned the shelter staff not to bring the puppy into the room with him, because he simply could not resist the tiny little dog and wanted to take him home.

Fortunately for the little pup, the staff brought him right in to the room with Marcus and he immediately snuggled up with the Police Officer! In that moment, it was over. Officer Montgomery could not let the little guy go! After finding out exactly what the pup needed, Marcus Montgomery and his girlfriend adopted him into their family.

“I immediately saw the connection, but I was at first apprehensive due to me and my girlfriend’s schedule. I figured it was going to be difficult to give him the proper care he deserves,” Marcus told Inside Edition. Marcus spoke with the staff to see what would go into caring for the dog.

“After speaking with the staff, they educated me on what he would need and that he would actually be OK by himself, as long as it wasn’t for an exorbitant amount of time. So I went home and talked with my girlfriend and she immediately fell in love with him once she held him,” he said.

The new pup, who has been named Kylo, joins the family and their other dog, a pit bull terrier named Vader.

Officer Montgomery closes with, “I hope Kylo’s story teaches people to look into their local animal shelters and give these abandoned dogs a new lease on life,”
